The CoreXY mechanism controls the hotend movement in the X and Y axis, I like how it functions and how it keeps the torque of the movement equal so it doesn't twist.
I needed to make something to hold the bars for the Y movement so I drilled a hole in some aluminum angle iron and slid the shaft in it, I could have deviation to the left or the right as I can just move the part before screwing it down but I could not have any deviation up or down as I had no way to adjust that so I clamped a piece of angle iron onto my drill press to butt the pieces up to so that I can get the height correct.
We are going to take a huge jump ahead here as I was so busy getting it to work etc. that I did not take pictures but I have a crude video I sent my wife and some pictures from after the build, I will be having better pictures as I swap out my bailing wire and bubblegum parts for printed parts.
Here is the video of me moving I sent my wife.
A video of it moving thinking it is printing:
Here are some after shots of it built and in place.
